Thank you Golden carers for all the great ideas. My residents really enjoy the quizzes and some of the craft activities. They especially want "This day in history". I try to make it a morning ritual after the newspaper reading. This month there are so many great ideas for St Patrick's day, many I have printed off to use. I take this opportunity to wish you all a Happy St Patrick's day. Here is my beautiful cat, she is much more photogenic than me!

We used card holders for those who had difficulty holding a hand of cards but we bought them
They were not that expensive
However if you do not want to spend the money you can make them
The ones we used were made out of wood
The easiest way would be to use some blocks of Styrofoam and cut slits in them that could hold the cards
Perhaps you could ask this question in our golden Carers Facebook group
